Profile Information
- Which Douglas line are you researching? Dates and places help making connections.
- Lord Spencer Hamilton
- Who is your earliest known Douglas ancestor?
- Anne Elizabeth Hamilton
Fanny Maria Wynter was married to William Johnston. William's parents were William Johnston and Isabel Cunningham who came out to Australia from Scotland.
My supposed connection to the Douglas line is via the Hamilton-Douglas or is it Douglas-Hamilton family linage of James Hamilton the 5th Duke of Hamilton and his 3rd wife Anne Spencer of Rendlesham, his father, being the 4th Duke of Hamilton, James Douglas-Hamilton, and his mother was Elizabeth Gerard.
This then take us back to his father William Douglas the 3rd Earl of Selkirk.
One of my Great Grandmothers was a Wynter (Fanny Maria 1840 - 1917), daughter of Henry Richard Walker Wynter (1808 - 1888). Henry's father, Philip Wynter (1753 - 1827) was married to Anne Elizabeth Hamilton (1769 - 1843).
Anne Hamilton is said to be the daughter of Lord Spencer Hamilton (1742 - 1791) and Charlotte Spencer (1745 - 1786). Anne had a brother Spencer Hamilton (1767 - 1767).
However, according to reliable sources of the day such as Burkes Peerage and others, Lord Spencer Hamilton did not marry let alone have any issues.
There seems to be even less scant information on his alleged wife Charlotte Spencer.
Charlotte Spencer could be related the famous Spencer line, or it has even been suggested that she is a third daughter of Edward Spencer of Rendlesham.
This would mean that Lord Spencer Hamilton had a relationship with his Aunt (?).
So, is there any documented proof out there to support the family history of this connection?
This must be what family researchers refer to as a brick wall.
I'm desperately trying to resolve this before I return in the Tardis to the 21 centuries, just find I have dissolved into thin air, after finding out this part of my genetic structure never having ever existed.
